Classic's Tale revealed...

Code: Select all
Feb 24 14:58:19 <Dinnerbone>  AndrewPH, we simply do not care about classic
Feb 24 14:58:31 <Cial>    :(
Feb 24 14:58:33 <AndrewPH>    Dinnerbone: tobias mentioned handing classic to the community
Feb 24 14:58:51 <Dinnerbone>  In what way?
Feb 24 14:58:52 <Grim_Reaper> \o/
Feb 24 14:58:53 <Grim_Reaper> Yay
Feb 24 14:58:54 <Dinnerbone>  Giving out its source?
Feb 24 14:58:57 <AndrewPH>    as in community support
Feb 24 14:58:57 <Grim_Reaper> Thankies :3
Feb 24 14:59:01 <AndrewPH>    and run by the community
Feb 24 14:59:09 <AndrewPH>    and hosted by the community presumably
Feb 24 14:59:20 <Dinnerbone>  You can go rehost it, I'm sure
Feb 24 14:59:23 <Dinnerbone>  But we aren't touching it
Feb 24 14:59:41 <Grim_Reaper> Not even just a little piggy touch?
Feb 24 14:59:54 <AndrewPH>    I made a replacement auth service for my classic server, but classic's applet doesn't work on anything but minecraft.net it seems
Feb 24 15:00:23 <Dinnerbone>  No Grim_Reaper
Feb 24 15:00:26 <Dinnerbone>  Not at all
Feb 24 15:00:32 <Grim_Reaper> Thought so
Feb 24 15:00:43 <AndrewPH>    Why, might I ask, are you guys so against doing anything with it?
Feb 24 15:04:27 <Dinnerbone>  Because it's not a product we want to continue to support
Feb 24 15:04:35 <Grim_Reaper> ^
Feb 24 15:05:08 <Dinnerbone>  If you want to play minecraft, play minecraft. Hell, you don't even need to pay for it. But this is an ancient, buggy, old version of minecraft that used to serve as a demo but got replaced
Feb 24 15:05:49 <Tear>    the latest minecraft can't have maps 2048 blocks tall.
Feb 24 15:06:17 <AndrewPH>    the latest minecraft doesn't have super-optimized server software :(
Feb 24 15:06:19 <Cial>    but we nolstagia so hard
Feb 24 15:06:35 <Dinnerbone>  Well that sucks
Feb 24 15:06:38 <Tear>    i did build something in classic by hand that needed 768 blocks of height
Feb 24 15:06:53 <Dinnerbone>  Classic doesn't have [pretty much anything that the current version has] neither.
Feb 24 15:06:56 <Dinnerbone>  And it won't.
Feb 24 15:07:10 <Dinnerbone>  Because it's an old version from eons ago that we don't support
Feb 24 15:07:19 <AndrewPH>    Are there any plans for allowing somebody in the community to maintain classic officially?
Feb 24 15:07:43 <Dinnerbone>  <Dinnerbone> In what way?
Feb 24 15:07:45 <Dinnerbone>  <Dinnerbone> Giving out its source?
Feb 24 15:07:49 <Dinnerbone>  What is: maintaining classic
Feb 24 15:08:03 <Dinnerbone>  Making sure it's hosted somewhere? Sure. Go rehost it. We don't care.


So now you know...the history of classic's life

Well, this seems how Mojang cares about classic. They don't realize people still love classic, because it's somewhat a different game then Minecraft. It hurts me that they're not like "Well yeah we don't care about the buggy crap but apparently people do care so here have the source code go make a fun server for you and your friends". But it's their game and their decision, and we should respect that. And, it's still free and we can still rehost stuff.

I loved classic. I wish people still could love it. But it's hard now.

They is in this case Dinnerbone.

When I saw "Feb 24 15:05:49 <Tear> the latest minecraft can't have maps 2048 blocks tall."
I was like OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO REKTTT

Yeah... if only Mojang decided to continue supporting Classic then we would know more...

Clearly, Minecraft could use some improving with world editing(vanilla, no mods)...

For instance Classic could be improved to be a compatible world editor(offline/online) for the current version Minecraft.
It could be called "Classic Editor". It wouldn't even be hard to implement for Mojang because of the awesome software Dzienny and others have created; The only update really needed on their end is the java applet and converting ".lvl" files to ".dat".

An optional update would be: having the editor merged somewhere in the title screen of the current Minecraft client menu. Which would be pretty epic. Eh? Lots of games have this kind of feature where you can make "levels" so to speak.


The only thing people use these days to build are mods I think.
So I'm sure world editing would become much easier for many.

That's my 2 cents.
